I mean, they're all big favorites of mine, 29 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 5: but our diarist was really candid with us. She's a 30 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 5: first gen immigrant from Sri Lanka and her life has 31 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 5: always revolved really heavily around finance, like a lot of 32 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 5: immigrant or first gen kids experience, because she's carrying a 33 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 5: lot of weight and a lot of responsibility for her family. 34 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 5: The majority of her family are still back in Sri Lanka. 35 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 5: She here with her sister and her mum, and she 36 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 5: spoke to us about firstly, what that burden. I don't 37 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 5: know if burden's the right word, because it's a you know, 38 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 5: a privilege, and she absolutely said that to be in 39 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 5: a position to look after her family, but there's a 40 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 5: lot of responsibility I think on her shoulders knowing that 41 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 5: they want to be helping out. And then lay it 42 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 5: over the top of all that, there's obviously a lot 43 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 5: of unrest over Intr Lanka right now that is really 44 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 5: complicating the matters for her family in terms of, you know, 45 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 5: access to resources and personal safety and all of these 46 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 5: absolutely tragic, awful things. And it was just so incredible 47 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 5: to hear how she reconciled all of that, because that 48 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 5: is a lot to be on the shoulders of a 49 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 5: twenty two year old and it really just made me go, wow, like, 50 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 5: you're incredible, and that story is actually probably not super unique. 51 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 5: There's a lot of people that are in the same position, 52 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 5: and so I was so grateful that she was really 53 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 5: open with us about her journey and her mental health 54 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 5: and that of her family as well as well. We 55 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 5: did also make sure that we put some really good 56 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 5: place so that you could donate money if you do 57 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 5: want to help out with the economic crisis in Sri Lanka. 58 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 2: In the show notes of that episode two. 59 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 4: And raight over to you, Miss Georgia King, what happened 60 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 4: on Wednesday? 61 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 6: On Wednesday, it was a super interesting episode that the 62 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 6: two of you did together, and it was all about 63 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 6: recognizing financial red flags in relationships, so it's super important topic. 64 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 6: We spoke about the red flags for someone who just 65 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 6: isn't right for you, and then we contrasted that with 66 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 6: someone who might be showing signs of financial abuse. 67 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: Which is a really really delineation. Yep, exactly. 68 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 6: You guys also went through the list of things that 69 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 6: we should be mindful of that count as red flags, 70 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 6: with things like not letting usevend your own money, borrowing 71 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 6: copious amounts from you, and not really telling you what 72 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 6: it's for, secret debt, credit card issues, all of that 73 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 6: kind of stuff. So if you are maybe worried that 74 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 6: your partner might have issues, or even that you might, 75 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 6: then I think this episode is a really good place 76 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 6: to start. 77 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think it was a good place to 78 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 4: start as well when it's like, here are the red flags. 79 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 4: But also everyone has a different money story, so we 80 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 4: need to be able to decipher what's a red flag 81 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 4: and maybe what's just an indication that they have some 82 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 4: money trauma. And that's a really hard thing to do 83 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 4: sometimes because you know, you might go, oh my gosh, 84 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 4: they're really hesitant around money. That means that they're hiding 85 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 4: something and it might actually just be their underlying anxiety. 86 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 4: So it's really important to see I guess things from 87 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 4: both sides of the coin while also having a really 88 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:23,799 Speaker 4: good level of empathy. 89 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 2: Was a good episode. 90 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 4: I mean, Jess and I did it together because you 91 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 4: were in BALI.

What's he up to? 243 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,319 Speaker 2: But I would. 244 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 6: Say Froomes is content. 245 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 4: For examples, Froomes once gave me an award like where 246 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 4: we won the. 247 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 2: If you're listening but she's not listening. 248 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 6: He must have just really found his niche and. 249 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 5: It is it's working for you. I think it's a 250 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 5: it's a good design if you've ever been nervous. We 251 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 5: hear a lot in the Business Bible community from small 252 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 5: business people who were anxious about showing up on social media. 253 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 2: It can be very profitable. 254 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 5: And while we're all not going to be Carbi Lame's 255 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 5: or Lamar's, I'm really sorry, don't have to pronounce your name. 256 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 5: There is profit to be had, and businesses more than 257 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,559 Speaker 5: ever are putting money and advertising spend behind these everyday 258 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 5: normal people, where once upon a time. 259 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:38,679 Speaker 2: It would have just been for celebrities. 260 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 6: So on that, guys, you are both influencers to a point. 261 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 2: Can you more than me? 262 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 5: For sure? 263 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 6: When you guys started, what was it like doing your 264 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,959 Speaker 6: very first video or your very first Instagram story or 265 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 6: whenever it quest and being vulnerable in front of the camera, 266 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 6: knowing that people are going to be like, oh god, 267 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 6: Jess is trying to be an influencer. What's Victoria trying 268 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 6: to do? Like, how do you block that out? For 269 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 6: people that are starting small businesses and they want to 270 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 6: put themselves out there, how do you push away that 271 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 6: kind of self doubt? 272 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 4: That's really hard because I had so much self doubt 273 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 4: at the start of my journey. In fact, the whole 274 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 4: reason I started a podcast was because they didn't want 275 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 4: to be in front of the camera and it was 276 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 4: just all too overwhelming to create YouTube videos like Jess, Like, 277 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 4: for those of you who don't know, she has more 278 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,599 Speaker 4: than fifty thousand bloody subscribers on YouTube, Like she's a 279 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 4: big dog in the YouTube world, but it's one of 280 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 4: those things that I was really overwhelmed. But then I 281 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 4: guess the more you do it, the more comfortable you 282 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 4: get with it. And I think that I at the 283 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 4: very start maybe assumed that people wanted something that wasn't 284 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 4: me and you'd have to like curate this. People just 285 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 4: want to see what you're up to, and like, I 286 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 4: just think that if you're following me, you probably have 287 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 4: something in common with me. We're probably the type of 288 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 4: people that are going to be friends. I would hope 289 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 4: you're not just following to laugh at me. But the 290 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 4: people that follow you genuinely want to see your content 291 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 4: and want to see what you're enjoying and want to 292 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 4: see what you're sharing, and so that to me makes 293 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,079 Speaker 4: it a little bit easier. I always find it a 294 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 4: lot more overwhelming when I'm creating content that I know 295 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 4: the brand is going to use, whereas if it's my audience, 296 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 4: I'm always like, oh, this is just for my friends, 297 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 4: And that's the way I approach it, because I'm like, well, 298 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 4: if I'd be embarrassed that my friends saw it, then 299 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 4: I'm not going to post it. So I think it's 300 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 4: just more dial it back a little bit. Jess, how 301 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 4: do you approach that you're just so much better at 302 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 4: it just always tells me what to do at all. 303 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 4: It's a really interesting dichotomy because on one hand, people 304 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 4: follow and I'm not putting myself in this category, but 305 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 4: I'm a very very micro influencer on the platforms that 306 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 4: I'm on. 307 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 2: But she's an influencer. But I don't like the word. 308 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 5: I think that it's really interesting because on one hand, 309 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 5: people always want more content. They want more videos, more photos, 310 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 5: more whatever from you, And even if she's on the money, 311 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 5: we see this as well. But people really hate sponsored content. 312 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 5: And I understand on some level that people don't want 313 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 5: things push down their throats. But it's something that I 314 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 5: really struggle with because I mean for myself personally, for 315 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 5: she's all the money for Victoria is well, we're so 316 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 5: incredibly selective with what we do take on. We only 317 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 5: take on things that resonate or products that we use, 318 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 5: or products that we genuinely like. And it's hard because 319 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 5: in order to give people what they want, if people 320 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 5: want more content, you require more time. You need to 321 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 5: pay for that. Somehow she's on the money employees, how 322 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 5: many full time staff we need to pay those bills, like, 323 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 5: unfortunately my salary doesn't just appear out of scene. 324 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 2: Now I have toesn't it? 325 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 6: We got it? 326 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 5: You know how we do that with ads? And so 327 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 5: I find it really interesting because people I think, who 328 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 5: aren't familiar with the advertising space, and more often than not, 329 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 5: the ones that have their back up a little bit 330 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 5: about it. And I struggle because I go, like, I 331 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 5: get that you don't want to be over sold to, 332 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 5: Like I get that you don't want me to be 333 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 5: like here's this bitcoin thing, because that doesn't a lot 334 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 5: like that would be gross coming from me because it. 335 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 4: Could become infomercials, you know, the ones to see like 336 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 4: after eleven pm on TV. 337 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, like if something doesn't seem genuine, I get why 338 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 5: you wouldn't. 339 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 2: Want to see that. 340 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 5: But influencers like have to put food on the table 341 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 5: like it is a job this day and age, and 342 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 5: you know, for us, it's something that's kind of an 343 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 5: aside to she's on the money, which I guess is 344 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 5: kind of an influencing thing in and of itself sometimes, 345 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 5: but you know, for people, I don't understand why people's 346 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 5: reaction isn't to support it, because whenever I see people 347 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 5: put stuff out that I like, I'm like, save it, 348 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 5: like it, comment on it, send it to a friend, 349 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 5: like doing everything I can to get that engagement up 350 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 5: because I'm like, yes, Queen, get that bag. 351 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 2: You worked hard. 352 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 5: I know that you love that brand, and I'm so 353 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 5: proud of you forgetting this job because it's a job 354 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 5: and I don't think people. 355 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 2: View it that way. 356 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 5: And we've copped it on shees on the money, we've 357 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 5: both copped it personally where people don't like it. Sponsor 358 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 5: posts tank and then you get self conscious because you're like, oh, like, 359 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 5: I was very proud of this, Like I worked really 360 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 5: hard on it, and I was really excited for someone 361 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 5: like me who is just a little tiny fish. I'm like, 362 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 5: I'm so proud that I've done it. 363 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 2: Comment not, sister. 364 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 5: But it's really interesting that people have the opposite reaction, 365 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 5: and I think it is just. 366 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: A mind frame thing because they don't get it. 367 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 4: Bay It's because they literally don't understand the time, energy 368 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 4: and effort it goes into it. I think that, you know, 369 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 4: influencing seems really glamorous because that's what influencers are best at, 370 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 4: making their lives look super glamorous, because that's why they exist, right, 371 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 4: But I think that the important thing to remember is 372 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 4: it's time, it's energy, it's effort, like the amount of 373 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 4: back and forth with the brand and understanding their brief 374 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 4: and then going how do you want this filmed? Like, 375 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 4: because there's so many semantics that come into it, Like 376 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 4: if you think you're just watching an organic skin care 377 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 4: video and that brand hasn't said use this one, then 378 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 4: this one, and then use this one and say this 379 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 4: about the like that happens all the time. And I mean, 380 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 4: I've never taken instruction from a brand like that because 381 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 4: it goes against everything in my body, Like, I just 382 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 4: can't do it. I have tried to work with brands 383 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 4: and I'm like, oh, give your product a crack. If 384 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 4: it's not something that I genuinely would use, I have 385 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 4: to say no pure because I'm just too transparent. I 386 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 4: can't get up there and be like, oh, Jess, I 387 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 4: love this, you should buy it too. 388 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 2: It makes me ick. 389 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 4: But I think that people don't understand the work that 390 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 4: goes into it and the amount of time, energy, effort 391 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 4: that went into all of those posts to get to 392 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 4: the first paid post, Like it's genuinely a lot of work. 393 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 4: But I do see the dynamic around influences and people's 394 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 4: and the community's expectation of them changing completely. Before it 395 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 4: was like the rise of the influencer, and influencers could 396 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 4: talk about anything, and then they became full time influencers. 397 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 4: And and now I think that full time influencers have 398 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 4: existed for a while that people are bored with them. 399 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 4: They're like, no, no, no, You're not relatable anymore. You're 400 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,959 Speaker 4: just like this full time influencer. I want to go 401 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 4: follow Georgia King, who's a journalist and also does some posts. 402 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 2: Or I want to. 403 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 4: Follow Jess, who we know works full time for she's 404 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 4: on the money and as a hustle in her own right, 405 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 4: but also runs this like little side thing of doing her. 406 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 2: Own influencer work. 407 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 4: And I think that that is the type of influence 408 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,440 Speaker 4: or influencers that people want to follow now because they 409 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 4: have I don't want to say more substance, but they 410 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,400 Speaker 4: kind of have more interest in the backstory of their lives, 411 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 4: and you know, they're the types of influencers I want 412 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 4: to follow, Like I want to follow business owners. I 413 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 4: want to follow people who have full time careers and 414 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 4: share that journey and also do sponsored content on the side, 415 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,719 Speaker 4: I don't want to just follow someone who's hot, like 416 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 4: I'm not a dude on TikTok or Instagram, Like I 417 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 4: don't need to see bikini picks. I really don't mind. 418 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 4: So I think that this dynamic is changing, but I 419 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 4: think people get so hyped about it. And this is 420 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,199 Speaker 4: why it's been sent to me so many times in 421 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 4: the last couple of weeks, is because a million dollars 422 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 4: one post seems astronomical. 423 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, weekly, we're not even scratching the surface of everyone. 424 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 4: We have to do like fifty million posts just to 425 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 4: like pay one of Jess's salaries. But I think it's 426 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 4: interesting because when it gets to that point, you're like, 427 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 4: that is stupid money. The reason people are willing to 428 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,919 Speaker 4: pay it is two things, right, conversion and exposure. So 429 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 4: conversion would be the amount of clients that they might 430 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 4: get for that or sales they might get for that post. 431 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 2: But then two, you look at this guy. 432 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:50,679 Speaker 4: And he has what more than one hundred and fifty 433 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 4: million TikTok followers. He is the biggest platform on TikTok. 434 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,959 Speaker 4: You are basically guaranteed exposure to your product by working 435 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 4: with this person. There's not a lot of places left, 436 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 4: like TV, radio, advertising billboards that I could guarantee that 437 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 4: type of exposure. 438 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 2: Like you go and. 439 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 4: Buy a billboard, you can't get one hundred and fifty 440 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 4: million eyes on that. Like And as much as not 441 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 4: every single one of his audience would see it, really 442 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 4: nice chunk of them will. And when it comes to advertising, 443 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 4: it's usually measured by how many people will see it, 444 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 4: hear it, or digest it as to how they cost 445 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 4: for it. So as much as that might seem astronomical, 446 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 4: it's just how the metrics might have come out. 447 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 6: As someone who works in traditional media, I think it's 448 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 6: really interesting to see how all of this money is 449 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 6: being reallocated to social media because it is more effective, 450 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 6: it is more trackable, you can see the results that 451 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 6: you're having as a brand. So yeah, it's just fascinating. 452 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 6: And you know, credit to carb Lame doing great work. 453 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 2: Great bed. 454 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 4: Yeah exactly. All right, let's do a listener question.

Now, let's take a listen to 464 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 6: today's money dilemma. 465 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 7: Hishes on the Money. I have a question about property. 466 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 7: With the increasing cost of houses, I want to put 467 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 7: us in the best position to purchase a house in 468 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 7: a few years time. We purchased my first property, which 469 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 7: was my partner's second property in twenty twenty. But my 470 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 7: question is would it be best to keep paying down 471 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 7: the current mortgages or with the equity and our current 472 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 7: property that's gone up about one hundred and thirty thousand 473 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 7: in two years, do we look to buy an investment 474 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 7: property now and have three assets gaining value? My concern 475 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,199 Speaker 7: is the amount of debt would be taken on, but 476 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 7: two of these properties would be investments and one we 477 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 7: currently reside in. Thanks. 478 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 4: When it comes to advice, obviously, I can answer this directly, 479 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 4: being really brutally honest like that is far too specific. 480 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 4: I don't know the semantics of your financial situation, or 481 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 4: your goals, or your values, or literally anything for me 482 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 4: to do that I need to do an entire statement 483 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 4: of advice, which would involve an entire fact find we 484 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 4: need to do a risk profile, we need to a 485 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 4: goal setting session, like there would be so much to it, right, 486 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 4: So unfortunately I can't do that. But I think that 487 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 4: this is actually one of those circumstances where the value 488 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 4: of financial advice really shines through. Like you clearly are 489 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 4: in a good financial circumstance, Like financial advice can be 490 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 4: a little bit inaccessible due to the cost. Right like 491 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 4: for a financial plan, you're paying anywhere between three and 492 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 4: probably seven thousand dollars depending on what financial advisor you 493 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 4: go and see. But in saying that this community member 494 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 4: has just told us that she's made one hundred and 495 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 4: thirty thousand dollars in two years on her property, I 496 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 4: would see it as a very good investment for them 497 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 4: to go and get some genuine, personalized financial advice, because 498 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,639 Speaker 4: not only is it going to, you know, answer the 499 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 4: question you're looking for, and I'm sorry, it's going to 500 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 4: cost you money, but you're in a circumstance you've just 501 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 4: explained it where a financial advisor is going to be 502 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,479 Speaker 4: able to turbo charge your wealth like they are going 503 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 4: to be able to sit down and be like, all right, 504 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 4: sit down, how are we going to do this? Be 505 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 4: what does this look like? How are we going to 506 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 4: work this out? What are your goals? What are your value? 507 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 4: They're going to create a financial plan that only means 508 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:21,919 Speaker 4: that for the next few years you are you know, 509 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 4: making bank on your investments, but you make the right 510 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 4: decisions along the way. It's very impressive that you've gotten 511 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,479 Speaker 4: this far without advice, But I would really push towards 512 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 4: getting advice now because it's quite a cushy and great 513 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 4: position to be and where you're like, I don't know 514 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 4: if I should pay off my mortgage or do this, 515 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 4: and like, I mean, if you don't want to go 516 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 4: and get advice, I would sit down and do your 517 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 4: own budget and your own cash flow and have a 518 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 4: look at what your mortgage rate is versus what the 519 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 4: rate of the share market is, versus what the rate 520 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 4: of other investments you're planning to make is, and make 521 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 4: a decision that is in line with that. But genuinely, 522 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 4: I think this is the perfect example of somebody who 523 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 4: should go and talk to a financial advisor. Obviously, I 524 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,199 Speaker 4: am the biggest advocate for the financial advice industry, Like 525 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 4: I used to be a financial advisor and I adored 526 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 4: my job, and I'm still a little bit begrudging that 527 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 4: I'm not doing that. But it just makes sense to 528 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 4: focus on She's on the money. But there are people that, 529 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 4: to be honest, I don't believe benefit as much as 530 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 4: they could from financial advice because they're just not in 531 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 4: the financial circumstances to afford it. But then also have 532 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 4: the most power. But this is one of those circumstances 533 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 4: where you go, gin, know what, if you're making that 534 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 4: much money on a property, you have that much equity, 535 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 4: you've got good cash flow, you've got good savings, and 536 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 4: you don't have enough direction. Honestly, this is when I 537 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 4: am quite point blank, go see a financial advisor. If 538 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 4: you don't have one, head to my website, She's on 539 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 4: the Money dot com, dot au, and I will match 540 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 4: you with one of our preferred partners. And those are 541 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 4: people that I work with directly each and every single 542 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 4: week to put the Shes on the Money community in 543 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 4: the best possible position. Like it's why we do what 544 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 4: we do. 545 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think as someone who kind of was advisor 546 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 5: adjacent for a very long time, fly on the wall. 547 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 5: There's a lot of value to be had by seeing 548 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 5: someone if you are in the right position to do so, 549 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 5: and if you have something that's super basic that you 550 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 5: can figure out yourself. As you said, maybe it's not 551 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 5: worth it, but for someone like our listener, where they've 552 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 5: got all of these assets and all of this money 553 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 5: at play, I can see how that would be. 554 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 2: Super valuable for them hundred percent. 555 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 4: And it's not just the wealthy people who need financial advice. 556 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,479 Speaker 4: I mean, we have insurance only advisors and people who 557 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 4: will just talk to you about investment in shares, and 558 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 4: people who could help you with your superannuation. Like there 559 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 4: are advisors for all stages, but in this particular case, 560 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 4: I'd really be steering you further towards a holistic financial 561 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,199 Speaker 4: advisor that can look at absolutely everything. And that is 562 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 4: on the I guess, pricier side of the financial advice realm, 563 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 4: But from my perspective, that's an investment in itself. Like 564 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,479 Speaker 4: the one thing that I think that financial advisors are 565 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 4: really bad at is selling themselves and saying, hey, gee, 566 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 4: if you get financial advice, this is the position you'll be, 567 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 4: and they want to do it. But if you spend 568 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 4: five grand, You're going to get that back in dividends 569 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,360 Speaker 4: over the rest of your financial life. And just think 570 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 4: that financial advisors need to be better at that, because 571 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 4: that's exactly. 572 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 2: What they do. 573 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 6: Take the plunge, be all. 574 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,120 Speaker 4: Right before we go to the boring but important stuff. 575 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 2: Georgia King, Hello. 576 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 4: Is this your second last episode of Friday Drinks? 577 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 6: I think it is. 578 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 5: Style's now not bring out the waterworks again. 579 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 2: No, but it's been a pleasure.
